Welcome to Abacus Partners

Abacus Partners is a privately held investment firm that seeks to acquire and actively manage an established private company in the United Kingdom. With significant investment and operational experience, Abacus Partners represents the capital and expertise of an accomplished group of entrepreneurs, investors and managers. We are seeking a single investment and our intention is to actively grow and develop the company we invest in.

Abacus Partners was formed with the specific purpose of long-term value creation in a private, small to mid-market company.

Our goal is to provide owners and managers with an attractive exit option and the opportunity for their business to enter a new phase of expansion, while ensuring the company's legacy.

By providing growth capital, full-time active management and a change in ownership structure, we aim to unlock significant business value and realise superior top and bottom line growth.

Our typical acquisition targets are well-established, profitable IT-related businesses with recurring revenues of £5m to £20m, that have predictable cash flows and sustainable competitive positions in growing markets.

We actively consider both standalone companies and divisions being divested by larger corporations.
